Guard Dog Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I drank a whole 12 pk last night. I feel awful today. I'm definitely getting old. When I was in the military I could do half again as much and still run 5k with pack and rifle the next morning without puking or falling out.

Hmm, to be fair, that IPA probably has a bit higher of an alcohol content than the cheap beer you drank back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, to be fair, that IPA probably has a bit higher of an alcohol content than the cheap beer you drank back in the day. True enough there. As a Lance Corporal (the rank I was stuck at almost the whole time) I was making around $300 every two weeks back in 1990 after taxes. After car payments and other misc I was a major customer of Keystone Light. I remember when the company that made Colders 29 went out of business and the PX was selling off their inventory for $4 a case. Oh it was nasty stuff but it was $4 a case! I bought so much my shocks were compressed on my car driving back home. Odd thing though, it didn't last as long as you'd think it would have. How the tooth feeling?

When I was in the military I could do half again as much and still run 5k with pack and rifle the next morning without puking or falling out. I know that feeling, I can't get drunk off beer because the amount of fluid needed to get there gets me bloated as hell. I'll usually ice some tequila or bourbon and drink about a pint or so of that when I feel like getting drunk.

Woldan Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'm in my late 20's and don't get a hangover even when I drink myself into a semi-coma, whats really annoying is that large amounts of beer tend to screw up my digestive system pretty good. But I only get drunk like once or twice year, I don't enjoy the feeling of being intoxicated at all. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Hurlshort Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 How the tooth feeling? I believe I have a classic case of dry socket. It is not great.

Commonly described as the worst pain you can be in without being mortally wounded. I think my nerves are shot though, because I had it twice and I would describe it as mild discomfort.

Woldan Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Commonly described as the worst pain you can be in without being mortally wounded.I had a nerve infection in a freshly sealed tooth and it made me climb the walls, but there is pain that is even worse. Had a salmonella infection from bad seafood, the first couple days my guts hurt so bad I rolled on the floor soaking wet from sweat and I had lots of blood in my stool. That was the only time ever I screamed in pain. I imagine this is how it feels to be gut-shot. I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Gfted1 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Flew in from Mexico and man are my arms tired. *rimshot* It was a beautiful resort and all-inclusive is the only way to go. We went on a couple of excursions, the first being zip lines and riding ATV's. There were 12 zip lip lines crisscrossing the jungle and besides the crazy jungle humidity it was fun. The ATV portion had us driving around the jungle until we got to a sinkhole filled with water, where we all jumped in and swam. The second excursion was snorkeling with sea turtles. We hopped on a 47' catamaran and sailed out to a reef where we all jumped in. The water was ~12" deep and clear all the way to the bottom. The highlight of the trip was seeing two sea turtles that swam right up to me and let me pet them with my own hands! It was awesome. Also saw a pretty big stingray, an eel just hanging out in a rock and of course a billion colorful Caribbean fish. The guide had a water bottle filled with mashed banana and would squirt some out right in front of you, which resulted in dozens of fish swarming around you. I'm exhausted now and being back to work is the suck. 6 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less than 2' away were these manhole cover size turtles and I was petting the shell like I would my dog. I even shook their flipper. I briefly considered trying to pet their heads but they have a pretty impressive beak on their mouths and I didn't want to have to visit a Mexican hospital. 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithe Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) I went to a friends birthday celebration. Which in this case, meant going to a roller disco where an obscene amount of 80's music was played. Thus, I had to try to remember what to do when wearing roller skates. Something I haven't had to do in a decade. Or two. Still, after about 3 hours of skating while under the disco lights, I did only fall down the once.

Rosbjerg Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 That was the only time ever I screamed in pain. Since we're 1upping, Meningitis is probably the worst I've tried.. It caused me to puke and almost completely pass out from pain. It was such an intense burning sensation in the brain and spine that I very literally wished for death, for 20min until my fever burned so hot I lost consciousness. Fortune favors the bald.

Raithe Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Well, to 1up with pain to my ego... the university Christmas party I got ridiculous drunk and happened to be wearing cheesy musical socks. So all my friends remember me puking up, and every time I upchucked my ankles would bang together and tinny, electronic "jingle bells" would play... oh my ego was in agony the next day. 2 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
